A short update from Red Onion Randy producer Michael Garbutt.

Randy is scheduled to be transferred out of Red Onion but he still doesn't know which prison he'll be sent to. In this last episode recorded at Red Onion, Randy calls podcast executive producer Michael Garbutt who was attending a conference at the University of Central Asia in Kyrgyzstan, where Randy meets some students and answers their questions.

The Department of Corrections finally grants Randy’s request for a transfer to another prison. But he’s in for a nasty surprise when he finds out the type of prison they’re going to send him to.

Randy describes possible changes to legislation that would allow early release for some inmates in Virginia state prisons.

Frustration has been the most difficult emotion Randy has to deal with.
In this episode, Randy shows that pent-up frustration leads him to quite an unexpected place.
